Hey Mom!
This past week has been incredible! It's been
eventful, miraculous and many other things. Let's just say Elder Carter and I
have been trying to be master planners and we may have mastered it this week.
Just kidding. We have so much to learn.
We were able to plan for the upcoming 6 weeks
and it was kind of weird. Everything that was happening was happening after I
get transferred into the land of eternal p-days. Other than that It's been so
great!
On Tuesday this week we met Terry Smith. A 60
year old lady that has been taking care of a member named Twila Shuler. Twila
has been diagnosed with cancer and has been bed ridden. Terry currently lives
in Montana but came down to Yakima so that she would be able to take care of
Twila. Terry is married to a less active member of the church and has actually
had the missionaries over in the past but never had the chance to accept the
gospel. As she has been here taking care of Twila she was reintroduced to this
glorious gospel message as the member Twila clings to what she believes at this
specific time. After the course of a couple months Twila, the member, says that
she will stay alive until Terry accepts the gospel. Shortly after, we were
invited over to teach her. As we got to know her we couldn't help but notice
how prepared she was. She had been waiting for her husband to become active and
take her back to church but she can't wait any longer. We obviously invited her
to be baptized and then set the date for December 12th. So for the next couple
of weeks leading up to that point are the busiest weeks of our lives. Well of
the lives of the new Assistants haha. It will all work out though.
Just a Quick update on this week! Sorry We have
to get running. I will email next week! have a great week! The picture below is
of Ray and I when we said goodbye today. He is the man! It's sad to leave!
Love,
E. Archibald
